Two Scrapbook Friends' Friendzy Friday

Yay! It is FRIDAY today.... Don’t you agree?    I am excited to show you something really superb easy and you can try it at home or at the scrapbook retreat.


Punched Circle Window

It is really easy to do. It is a simple design and you can see it here.



I could shape in the center.  I punch a circle into just a piece of scrap paper and I trace it where I want it to be on the layout, not on green background but just on those pieces that will be cut. 






There are other ways to do this but I find this to be the easiest way since it allows me to move around.
I can lift up the piece of paper and put it back down.  So here I am punching right along the charm circle.





Hope you will try this technique.  You can also use square punch to make it square window.    

Happy Scrappy!

Echo Park This & That Charming

Two Scrapbook Friends had given me DT project and I created with one of the new collection from Echo Park. This & That Charming is a spectacular line filled with warm, rich colours and it also comes with embellishments. This is a treat because not all collections from Echo Park include matching goodies. Let's take a closer look at my creations........

The Petrone Boys Layout -  This layout, I used a very crisp, clean style to my pages.  I cut the banner and placed on it according to Two Scrapbook Friend's very own DT Jayne's sketch


Take Us Out To The Ballgame - I used some vintage looking photos of my boys in old baseball uniforms for this layout.  I used some baseball elements in this collection line and they're fun to work with.   Two Scrapbook Friend's DT Christa created a single page sketch and I flipped to another side to create my layout




 

I Think You're Amazing layout, I chose to use a wood background on my layout. It is not too busy and really compliments the layering of the other papers. I also used our Two Scrapbook Friend's very own DT Shelby's sketch to create this layout.





Check out Two Scrapbook Friends' blog for more details.


Have a terrific day!
